1 Energy Efficiency Improvement Program (PMEE) for public buildings owned by the municipality of Agnone WP4 activities: Task Energy Plan Executive Summary Report D 4.4 October 2014

2 Introduction ALTERENERGY (Energy Sustainability for Adriatic Small Communities) is a Strategic Project funded within the cross-border Cooperation Programme IPA-Adriatic Launched in September 2011, with a 12,5 Mln Euro total budget and with a duration of 4 years (completion of work in August 2015), ALTERENERGY aims to promote Energy sustainability through the ever- wider use of renewable energy sources and through the diffusion of interventions to increase efficiency and energy saving, thereby seeking to contribute to the achievement of the Europe 2020 objectives. In particular, this Strategic Project promotes sustainability within small Adriatic communities (having a population of less than inhabitants ) through an integrated approach for the efficient use of energy and its production from renewable sources. The specific aim of the project is to develop replicable management models of sustainable energy resources within small Adriatic municipalities, thus improving their ability to plan and manage integrated actions of energy saving and production from renewable sources. In this context, the region Molise(Partner of the Strategic Project ALTERENERGY 1 )has identified Agnone as the community where to conduct the experimental activities of the Project(Memorandum of Understanding between Region and Municipality signed on 17/12/2013). By public tender, region Molise has designated a Temporary Firms Association (formed by IZI spa, EdilNEZ consortium, CRESME Consulting Srl, AFORIS Srl) to provide all the necessary technical support to accomplish its tasks for the Alterenergy Project. One of these task is the development of an Energy Efficiency Improvement Program (in Italian PMEE ) for public buildings to be tested in Agnone municipality. The task was performed with the support Planergy, a web application specifically designed to monitor public real estate from the energy consumption point of view. 2 The performed activities are fully consistent with those included in the SEAP issued by Agnonemunicipality on May 2013 which are organized into the following three phases. 1. Energy Assessment: after a site survey in each public building, collection and analysis of data related to energy consumption and structure performance (ref.wp4 activities - Task 4.3); 1 ALTERENERGY relies on a partnership of 18 organizations, regions, ministries and energy agencies belonging to all the countries of the Adriatic area: Italy (7 Adriatic Regions- Puglia, Abruzzo, Emilia Romagna, Friuli Venezia Giulia, Marche, Molise, Veneto), Albania, Bosnia Herzegovina, Croatia, Greece, Montenegro, Serbia and Slovenia.

3 2. Energy plan: after a technical desk analysis and a quantitative / qualitative assessment of results achieved in the first phase, identification of candidate Energy Efficiency Improvement 2 measures (such as technical interventions on building envelope or systems), estimation of their expected cost-benefit ratios, selection of the package of applicable technical solutions which maximizes the expected revenues at the entire real estate stock level i.e. PMEE(ref. WP4 activities -Task 4.4); 3. Definition of a convenient Financial Plan which can support PMEE procedures according to a building Monitoring and Verification approach(ref. WP6 activities -Task 6.2) WP 4 task 4.3 Energy Assessment WP 4 task 4.4 Energy Plan WP 6 task 6.2 Financial Plan Definition This document is an executive summary of Report D 4.4 concerning Energy Plan activities (phase II), carried out on 8 properties of Agnone municipality. 3 2 In Italian: Misure di Efficienza Energetica MEE

4 Results outline The energy plan has been developed for a set of 8 properties owned by Agnone municipality on the basis of the information framework obtained from the Energy Assessment (please refer to Report D 4.3). The results are summarized in the following table. USE ENERGY CONSUMPTION Code Property Main Use Total available area (in & out) (m 2 ) Available Int. Area (m 2 ) Used int. area (m 2 ) Usage rate (%) (3) Primary Energy Perf. Energy Index (kwhp) kwhp/m 2 (mean ) (mean ) CO 2 emission (kg CO 2 ) (mean ) 1 Town Hall Office ,5% Palazzo San Francesco Culture ,5% Palazzo dei Filippini ,0% Palazzo Bonanni Office ,2% Palazzo Nuova Pretura Scuola elementare Capoluogo Marinelli Office ,3% Education ,3% Scuola Materna Education ,3% Asilo nido Ape Maia Education ,3% The identification of the Energy Efficiency Improvement measures has been achieved in three steps: 1. Construction of a catalogue of solutions feasible for our analysed building set. 2. Estimate of the costs of proposed measures and of their expected effects on each building. 3. Selection of those measures which are successfully applicable for the analysed properties through an evaluation in terms of their cost benefit ratio.

5 The catalogue of possible measures to improve Energy Efficiency For the purposes of the evaluation and selection of measures to improve energy efficiency, below are cited the solutions found and belonging to the following three categories: solutions to improve building envelope; solutions to improve technological systems; incentives for energy efficiency. 1.1 Interventions to improve building envelope performance Energy Efficiency Measure on building envelope Cost (material + mounting) /m 2 Cost considered for the estimation /m 2 Achievable Energy savings Savings considered in the estimation Thermal insulation of Perimeter walls INV1 - External coat % 20% INV2 - Internal insulation % 15% 5 Roof Thermal insulation INV3 Insulated Soffit % 15% INV4 Insulated top surface % 25% INV5 Thermal Insulation of floor on the ground % 7% INV6 Replacement of windows and doors % 7% Energy Efficiency measures: Costs and savings table

7 Financial instruments and incentive tools In this report the following accessible incentive tools have been considered for energy efficiency improvement interventions: - Energy Efficiency Thermal Incentive (in Italy named Conto termico ); - Net metering for photovoltaic systems; - Energy Saving Certificates (or white certificates). For the buildings set under analysis only the Conto termico incentive has found fruitful applications. Its characteristics are summarized in the following table. Summarizing framework of Energy Efficiency Thermal Incentive ( Conto Termico in Italy) Solutions TYPE OF INTERVENTION CONDITIONS FOR PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION INV IMP1 Improvement of the building envelope (e.g. insulation of walls and roofs, replacement of windows and doors, solar screen installation) Installation in replacing of condensing boilers Access mode: direct, after execution of the interventions incentive booking, funding approval, start of intervention within 60 days from approval. Incentive: 40% of sustained costs with limitations on building surface entity and overall cost.

8 Evaluation criteria to assess Energy Efficiency interventions Based on building characteristics (e.g. volumes, dimensions, envelope surfaces, usage, energy flows behaviour) and on measured energy consumption (period ), a building model has been developed and the potential impact of each improvement measure listed in the catalogue has been analysed and evaluated. Interventions not compatible with existing zoning ordinances have been discarded. Adopted performance indicators Each standard type of intervention has been evaluated according to the following two performance indicators : where 1. payback time T r defined as the number of years an Energy efficiency intervention provides a return on investment; C inv denotes the total investment amount; I tot the total obtainable incentive amount; R the annual expected energy saving rate. T r C inv R I tot 8 2. CO 2 emissions abatement cost indicator which is defined as the ratio between the initial investment cost C inv [Euro] and the avoided emissions of CO 2 t saved during the entire investment period (related to the equipment technical life). The selected interventions package The package of selected interventions to be implemented on the analysed building stock is reported in the following table.
